Isn't there a much greater lack of logic in not believing in God? If I'm wrong I've lead a good life and that its. If YOU are wrong, you burn in hell forever. Which is the more rational road to take?

If you're not sure that a certain god actually exists, how can you be sure that a real god unknown to you won't punish you for following a false deity?

I'm not saying I believe this, but there could be a real god who remains hidden and gifted humanity with reason and will punish those gullible fools who refuse to use thier gifts out of fear.

Such a diety would not decieve people by using a humble man who rode a donkey into a city and who spoke in such parables. But you would have to have logic and a heart to understand that.

My odds are still better than yours. You're sure to burn in hell if you follow no God.

Well if you don't believe it, what rational basis could there be for your choice to not believe?
